The Tiger Airway flight reportedly requested a routine go-around as its approach was too unstable for landing. Malaysia Airlines flight MH136 was already accelerating for take-off when it was told to abort. Flight MH136’s departure was delayed by an estimated 20 minutes and arrived safely in Kuala Lumpur 10-minutes later than expected.

Malaysia Airlines is said to still be reeling from the MH370 and MH17 tragedies.

MH370 left from Kuala Lumpur on March 8 for Beijing and until now remains missing, while MH17 left Amsterdam on July 17, bound for the Malaysian capital when it was hit by a missile allegedly fired by Moscow-backed Ukrainian rebels.
